Manage episode 424211064 series 2467889
Luxury travel, once synonymous with lavish accommodations and traditional opulence, is undergoing a profound transformation.
Discerning travelers now seek experiences that go beyond the conventional definitions of luxury, embracing a new era of exclusivity, authenticity, and sustainability.
That is why the no-plastic policy that award-winning Farmhouse Resort and Spa implements on its campus heralds a new era for the hospitality industry, setting the benchmark for sustainable tourism.
A profit-generating arm of the Smiling Gecko aid project co-founded in 2014 by Swiss artist Hannes Schmid, all of the profits are funnelled back into the wider initiative.
Hannes Schmid, Founder of Smiling Gecko explains more.
